Vegas Showman, ‘Bull Durham’ Actor Dead At 52
SPORTSbyBROOKS —
Anyone who’s been to Las Vegas over the past 10-15 years surely has heard the name Danny Gans, if for no reason other than that his face was on ads plastered all over the Strip.

Circling The Bases —
Not so long ago Wandy Rodriguez looked like just another long reliever or fifth starter, going 19-20 with a 5.58 ERA in 264 innings through two seasons with the Astros after posting a 4.65 ERA between Double-A and Triple-A. He didn't throw especially hard, didn't induce tons of ground balls or miss many bats, his control wasn't very good, he was already 26 years old by the time he debuted in the majors, and the diminutive left-hander weighed 150 pounds soaking wet. Yet here we are just a few years later and Rodriguez has emerged as one of the best pitchers in the National League, striking out 11 batters while beating the Rockies yesterday ...
